Set_Xlim And Set_Ylim Function In Matplotlib
Purpose
- Set_xlim function specifies minimum and maximum limit of x-axis.
- Set_ylim function specifies minimum and maximum limit of y-axis.
Example
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import array
arr1 = array.array('i', [1, 2, 3])
arr2 = array.array('i', [4, 5, 6])
# Create a figure object
fig = plt.figure()
# add axis
axes = fig.add_axes([.1,.1,.8,.8])
# Plot graph
axes.plot(arr1,arr2, marker='o')
plt.xlim([0.5, 3])
plt.ylim([0.5, 6])
# Show graph
plt.show()
- Minimum limit of x-axis is .5 and maximum is 3.
- Minimum limit of y-axis is .5 and maximum is 6.
